TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SUBSCRIPTION FOR
COMMON SHARES OF ACADIAN MINING CORPORATION
Subscription for Shares
1. The Subscriber hereby confirms its irrevocable subscription for and offers
to purchase the Shares of the Corporation set out on page 1 hereof at a
price of $0.0262389 per Share (the "Subscription Price"), all on the terms
and subject to the conditions set forth in these Terms and Conditions
forming part of the Subscription Agreement.
Conditions to Closing and Completion of Transactions in Tranches
2. The Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that the completion of the
transactions contemplated hereby and the issue of the Shares to the
Subscriber is subject to and conditional on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the
"TSX") granting approval for the issuance of the Shares and the listing of
and posting for trading of such Shares. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the Subscriber acknowledges that the TSX may permit the
Corporation to initially issue to the Subscriber only that portion of the
Shares representing 9.9% of the issued and outstanding capital of the
Corporation (after giving effect to such issuance) and that the remaining
balance of the Shares may, if required by the TSX, be issued only upon a
person or persons associated with the Subscriber having filed with the TSX
personal information form(s) satisfactory to the TSX (in order to permit
the Corporation to issue to the Subscriber the balance of the Shares
representing in aggregate 19.9% of the issued and outstanding capital of
the Corporation, after giving effect to such issuance). The Subscriber
agrees that the issue of the Shares (and corresponding release of the
aggregate Subscription Price from escrow) may therefore be required to be
structured in tranches in order to comply with the terms of such TSX
approvals and policies. The parties agree that from and after the Closing
Time the Corporation will issue from time to time that portion of the
Shares that may be validly issued in compliance with such TSX approvals and
policies (against the release from escrow of a corresponding portion of the
aggregate Subscription Price) and that if the Corporation cannot with
respect to any portion of the Shares fulfill such approvals and comply with
such policies on commercially reasonable terms, that portion of the
aggregate Subscription Price so affected will be returned to the Subscriber
without interest or deduction and the Corporation shall have no further
obligation to issue the affected Shares to the Subscriber.
Representations, Warranties and Covenants by Subscriber
3. By executing this Subscription Agreement, the Subscriber (on its own behalf
and, if applicable, on behalf of the others for whom it is contracting
hereunder) represents and warrants to and covenants with the Corporation
(and acknowledges that the Corporation and its counsel are relying thereon)
that:

being issued pursuant to exemptions from the prospectus requirements

the exemption and their qualification thereunder as the
Corporation may reasonably request;
(ii) the purchase of Shares by the Subscriber, and (if applicable) any

reasonably foresee, will materially adversely affect, the assets,
liabilities (contingent or otherwise), capital, affairs, business,

and none of the documents filed by or on behalf of the Corporation
pursuant to the securities laws of the Reporting Provinces contain a

internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable
assurance that in all material respects: (i) transactions are

of management of the Corporation; (ii) transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit the preparation of consolidated financial
statements for the Corporation in conformity with Canadian generally
accepted accounting principles and to maintain asset accountability;

Subsidiaries at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken
with respect to any differences therein;

and sale of securities by the Corporation has been issued and no
proceedings for either of such purposes have been instituted or, to
the best of the knowledge of the Corporation, are pending,
contemplated or threatened;

the Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2007, together with
the auditors' report thereon and the notes thereto, and the unaudited

with prior periods (except as disclosed in such consolidated financial
statements), are substantially correct in every particular and present
fairly the financial condition and position of the Corporation on a
consolidated basis as at the dates thereof and such consolidated
financial statements contain no direct or implied statement of a
material fact which is untrue on the date of such consolidated
financial statements and do not omit to state any material fact which
is required by Canadian generally accepted accounting principles or by
applicable law to be stated or reflected therein or which is necessary
to make the statements contained therein not misleading;
(s) No Contemplated Changes. Except as disclosed in the Corporation's
public documents or pursuant to the transaction contemplated hereby,
none of the Corporation or any Subsidiary has approved, is
contemplating, has entered into any agreement in respect of, or has
any knowledge of:
(i) the purchase of any property or assets or any interest therein or

any Subsidiary; or

are no agreements, waivers or other arrangements providing for an
extension of time with respect to the filing of any tax return by any

penalty, interest or fine against any of them. To the knowledge of
management of the Corporation, there are no material actions, suits,
proceedings, investigations or claims now threatened or pending
against the Corporation or any Subsidiary which could result in a
material liability in respect of taxes, charges or levies of any

authority relating to taxes, governmental charges, penalties,
interest, fines, assessments or reassessments asserted by any such

(contingent or otherwise), condition (financial or otherwise) or
prospects of, the Corporation or any Subsidiary;

HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING SUCH SECURITIES, AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT

TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE COMPANY; (B) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES IN
ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES
ACT; (C) IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE
U.S. SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY RULE 144 THEREUNDER, IF AVAILABLE, AND

SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY TO SUCH EFFECT."
"THE PRESENCE OF THIS LEGEND MAY IMPAIR THE ABILITY OF THE HOLDER
HEREOF TO EFFECT "GOOD DELIVERY" OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY
ON A CANADIAN STOCK EXCHANGE. A CERTIFICATE WITHOUT A LEGEND MAY BE
OBTAINED FROM THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT OF THE CORPORATION IN
CONNECTION WITH A SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY AT A TIME
WHEN THE CORPORATION IS A "FOREIGN ISSUER" AS DEFINED IN REGULATION S
UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT, UPON DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE, AN
EXECUTED DECLARATION AND, IF REQUESTED BY THE CORPORATION OR THE
TRANSFER AGENT, AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OF RECOGNIZED STANDING, EACH IN
FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE TRANSFER AGENT OF THE CORPORATION AND THE
CORPORATION, TO THE EFFECT THAT SUCH SALE OF THE SECURITIES
REPRESENTED HEREBY IS BEING MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 904 OF
REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT.";
provided, that if the Shares are being sold outside the United States in
compliance with the requirements of Rule 904 of Regulation S at a time
when:
(i) the Corporation is a "foreign issuer" as defined in Regulation S at
the time of sale, and
(ii) the seller of the Shares is not an "affiliate" of the Corporation, as
that term is defined in Rule 405 under the U.S. Securities Act (other
than an officer or director who is an affiliate of the Corporation
solely by virtue of holding such position),
the legends set forth above may be removed by providing an executed
declaration to the registrar and transfer agent of the Corporation, in
substantially the form set forth as Appendix A attached hereto (or in such
other forms as the Corporation may prescribe from time to time) and, if
requested by the Corporation or the transfer agent, an opinion of counsel
of recognized standing in form and substance satisfactory to the
Corporation and the transfer agent to the effect that such sale is being
made in compliance with Rule 904 of Regulation S; and provided, further,
that, if any Shares are being sold otherwise than in accordance with
Regulation S and other than to the Corporation, the legends may be removed

remain a "foreign issuer".

the Subscriber of an acquisition or disposition of the Shares. The
Corporation gives no opinion and makes no representation with respect to

foreign tax law of the undersigned's acquisition or disposition of such
Shares.
(p) It understands and agrees that the financial statements of the Corporation

instructions to any transfer agent of the Corporation in order to implement
the restrictions on transfer set forth and described in this certification
and the Subscription Agreement.

The undersigned (A) acknowledges that the sale of the securities of the
Corporation to which this declaration relates is being made in reliance on Rule
904 of Regulation S under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "U.S. Securities Act"), and (B) certifies that (1) the undersigned is not

the U.S. Securities Act), except any officer or director who is an affiliate of
the Corporation solely by virtue of holding such position (b) a "distributor" as
defined in Regulation S or (c) an affiliate of a distributor; (2) the offer of
such securities was not made to a person in the United States and either (a) at
the time the buy order was originated, the buyer was outside the United States,
or the seller and any person acting on its behalf reasonably believed that the
buyer was outside the United States, or (b) the transaction was executed on or
through the facilities of the Toronto Stock Exchange (or another designated
offshore securities market) and neither the seller nor any person acting on its
behalf knows that the transaction has been prearranged with a buyer in the
United States; (3) neither the seller nor any affiliate of the seller nor any
person acting on their behalf has engaged or will engage in any directed selling
efforts in the United States in connection with the offer and sale of such
securities; (4) the sale is bona fide and not for the purpose of "washing off"
the resale restrictions imposed because the securities are "restricted
securities" (as that term is defined in Rule 144(a)(3) under the U. S.
Securities Act); (5) the seller does not intend to replace such securities with
fungible unrestricted securities; and (6) the contemplated sale is not a
transaction, or part of a series of transactions, which, although in technical
compliance with Regulation S, is part of a plan or scheme to evade the
registration provisions of the U. S. Securities Act. Terms used herein have the
meanings given to them by Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act.
